Windows Server 2003 Access-based Enumeration

Now that we are sporting Windows 2003 SP1 in our production environment, I took a look at the Windows 2003 Access-based Enumberation utility available from Microsoft. In short, this prevents users from seeing folders, files and shares that they don't have rights to access. Coming from a Novell NetWare environment, it's great to see this functionality.

It requires Windows 2003 SP1, and provides for either a command line or GUI interface to enable the functionality globally or on a individual share basis.

Good Stuff!
